13Cr Martensitic Stainless (var. 4)
metal13Cr Martensitic Stainless Steel (variant 4) is a cobalt-strengthened, molybdenum-alloyed martensitic stainless steel designed for ultra-high-strength applications requiring corrosion resistance and wear tolerance. This composition—elevated in cobalt (14.1 wt%), molybdenum (3.73 wt%), and carbon (0.47 wt%)—represents a specialized variant optimized for demanding aerospace, energy, and precision engineering sectors where both static strength and fatigue resistance in corrosive or wear-prone environments are critical. The addition of cobalt and molybdenum over conventional 13Cr grades provides strengthening and enhanced toughness retention, making it particularly suited to applications where standard martensitic stainless steels would be marginal.
